She's So Lucky

#332: If you’ve been waiting for permission, validation, or a sign to make a change, this is it.
In this episode of the “How to Get What You Want” series, I’m sitting down with psychic medium, spiritual teacher, and author Aycee Brown for a conversation about the one thing standing between you and the life you want: telling yourself the truth.
Because most of the time when you feel stuck, it’s a sign of self-rejection, not confusion.
Together, we unpack why clarity is the real catalyst for manifestation, how many of us unconsciously abandon our desires to be more palatable, and what it looks like to trust your body, your intuition, and your inner knowing.
If luck is created through alignment, then honesty is where it begins.
Aycee also shares how spiritual frameworks like astrology, numerology, and human design can deepen your self-understanding, why success can feel more threatening than failure, and how small acts of self-trust build the life you’ve been envisioning.
Consider this your reminder: you don’t need to become someone else to have the life you want. You need to embody who you already are.

This episode is for you if…
You know you want more and you’re done pretending you don’t.
You’re ready to be honest about what you want.
You’ve outgrown who you used to be.
You’re learning that self-trust is the real strategy.
You want clarity — not confusion — guiding your next chapter.
You’re done waiting for luck to knock on your door and are ready to create it.

#331: In this unfiltered solo episode, I break down why February is about claiming what’s yours and what it really takes to get what you want. Not the aesthetic version. Not the “manifest and wait” version. The real version: with clarity, courage, discipline, and having that dog in you.
From recognizing your unfair advantage, to building the capacity to hold bigger dreams, to shooting your shot even when you’re scared, I walk you through how luck is actually built through bold decisions, uncomfortable growth, and choosing yourself even when it feels risky

✨ In this episode:
I share personal stories about how early conditioning and outside voices can plant desires in us that aren’t actually ours
Why it’s crucial to get honest about what you truly want (not what you’ve been told to want)
I tell you the truth about “being humble” and why it makes you small
Leaning into your real gifts instead of copying others and why that alignment is key
Why the people closest to you may struggle the most with your growth
How to protect your dreams without cutting everyone off
How to unlock your unfair advantage, shoot your shot and get louder about your desires

If you’ve been feeling a pull toward something bigger but haven’t given yourself full permission to be honest about what you want, this episode is your wake-up call.

#330: The more successful you get, the easier life gets…right?
In our final installment of the Breaking the Rules series, today I’m welcoming back the one, the only, Tricia Lee, real estate powerhouse for a truly activating and inspiring conversation about what it takes to truly reach your potential.
From choosing discomfort on purpose to breaking into new rooms and establishing new versions of yourself, Tricia shares why expansion requires ego checks, bold moves, and a willingness to stop playing it safe.
We talk about:
How to intentionally put yourself in rooms where no one knows you to push yourself and expand your opportunities.
The strategies Tricia used to build the emotional muscle to tolerate discomfort, criticism, and setting ego aside while growing her brand and career.
What it really takes to break into new spaces when you’re already successful in one lane.
What’s required of you to level up to your fullest potential.
Why growth never gets easier and how to develop the resilience needed to keep growing.
How bold preparation, relationship-building, and “act as if” energy turn ambition into real, tangible results.

#329: If you need confirmation that it’s okay to follow a path that isn’t linear, this episode is it. In this week’s installment of the Breaking the Rules series, I chat with entrepreneur, investor, and creative multi-hyphenate Hannah Bronfman about rewriting timelines, releasing perfection, and trusting the turns that lead you exactly where you’re meant to be.

This episode is for you if:
You’re feeling like you want to make a change, but you’re scared to let go of the identity or path you originally planned.
You no longer wants to live by linear timelines or traditional ideas of success.
You want to build wealth, invest in, and support women-owned businesses but don’t know where to start.
You’re ready to embrace evolution as part of creating your next chapter.
You want to become more comfortable in unfamiliar spaces.

#328: So you know it’s time to make a pivot, but you aren’t sure what comes next. Today’s conversation will help guide you through it.
In the next installment of the “Breaking the Rules” series, I’m talking all things pivots with Jeannette Reyes and Mona Abdi, co-hosts of the Awf the Record podcast, who both left stable news careers to bet on themselves. And spoiler: they're not looking back.
Jeannette and Mona get refreshingly honest about the unsexy parts of pivoting: the financial spreadsheets, the years-long planning timelines, the moments of wondering if they’re doing the right thing. They share why loving your job isn't always enough, how to know when your intuition is screaming louder than your fear, and why having a "board of advisors" can make or break your leap.

This episode is for you if:
You're on the cusp of making a major life pivot, and need help taking the next step
You're struggling with the pressure to balance expectations and joy
You want to build a community to support you during your pivot
You want to understand how to build a business from scratch
You're curious about what it really takes to launch a podcast (hint: it's not vibes alone)

If you enjoyed this episode, leave us five stars — I heard that if you rate the show five stars, something lucky happens. Test that theory, and make sure you're subscribed on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.
